Cursor size mismatch
by Dr. Nikolaus Klepp 01 Jun '24

01 Jun '24

Hi all! Since an update some weeks ago I have a cursor-size-mismatch-problem (see attached screenshot): The cursor size inside and outside of windows is 48px (as I want it to be and as it 's in the config files), but it is 34px on window borders and kicker icons. Does anybody know were this comes from? I want the cursors to be 48px in every case. Nik -- Please do not email me anything that you are not comfortable also sharing with the NSA, CIA ...

by Dr. Nikolaus Klepp 30 May '24

Hi all! Does anybody know which part of TDE controls XF86RaiseVolume / XF86LowerVolume? I need to remap these 2 keys to XF86LaunchA / XF86LaunchB but TDE always answers with the OSD volume bar, even when I remap the beys with xmodmap ...

Kmail spam filtering is, BEYOND BAD :S, or am I doing something wrong?
by Chris M 29 May '24

29 May '24

KMAIL 1.9.10 Yes, I've gone to TOOLS > Anti-Spam Wizard and sat that up. But emails are still getting delivered to the inbox and I am having to right click on the emails and go to APPLY FILTER > MARK AS SPAM. Why does KMAIL not move emails that it thinks is spam, to my " JUNK" folder? Or am I doing something wrong? ============================================================ THANKS IN ADVANCE!

Here's the Kaffeine problem
by dep 29 May '24

29 May '24

As I said, no sound. The occasional crackle or alarming pop. Video is fine. EPG is fine. Started it in a terminal and after the expected bitching about not liking my desktop, this: [code] mpeg2_v4l2m2m @ 0x7fff5804e100] Could not find a valid device [mpeg2_v4l2m2m @ 0x7fff5804e100] can't configure decoder [00007fff58013710] avcodec decoder error: cannot start codec (mpeg2_v4l2m2m) [00005556238c9770] main audio output error: too low audio sample frequency (0) [00007fff58053150] main decoder error: failed to create audio output [mpeg2_v4l2m2m @ 0x7fff5804e100] Could not find a valid device [mpeg2_v4l2m2m @ 0x7fff5804e100] can't configure decoder [00007fff58013710] avcodec decoder error: cannot start codec (mpeg2_v4l2m2m) [00007fff40006870] gles2 gl: Initialized libplacebo v4.208.0 (API v208) [mpeg2video @ 0x7fff5804e100] get_buffer() failed [mpeg2video @ 0x7fff5804e100] get_buffer() failed (-12 (nil)) [/code] I suspect that this has something to do with TV signals not being of Debian purity. For a long time Debian would not ship mpeg2 at all because of licensing issues. Maybe somebody here will see this and instantly know the solution. dep Pictures: http://www.ipernity.com/doc/depscribe/album Column: https://ofb.biz/author/dep/

Kaffeine solved
by dep 28 May '24

28 May '24

Well, this is weird. I made sure I had every package with Pulseaudio in its name installed. Opened raspi-config and set audio control to Pulseaudio. Now have ITA TV as well as all the other sound I had. I may be taking away the wrong lesson, but at this point my thought is that Pipewire was the rollicking success Wayland was. Debian is always conservative in all the wrong places. dep Pictures: http://www.ipernity.com/doc/depscribe/album Column: https://ofb.biz/author/dep/

Proposed Kicker Wallpapers
by Darrell Anderson 26 May '24

26 May '24

I proposed four new 'dark' kicker wallpapers: https://mirror.git.trinitydesktop.org/gitea/TDE/tdebase/issues/491 If approved the files would be installed in $TDEHOME/share/apps/kicker/wallpapers. If interested then download the tar file and copy the files there. I have been using black_flat, black_glass, blue_glass with different user accounts for more than a year. Side note: I am not enthusiastic about overall dark themes. They tend to hurt my old eyes and I never developed a habit of surfing the web under my bed covers. But I do like a dark panel.

Requesting new feature
by Darrell Anderson 26 May '24

26 May '24

I'm feeling more frustrated than stupid, but I cannot figure out how to request a new feature (or report a bug). I have four proposed Kicker wallpapers to submit. I logged into gitea, in the top left selected the 'Pull Requests' link, in the left side selected TDE/tdebase. I see a green New Pull Request button. I select the button and am greeted with a message, "These branches are equal. There is no need to create a pull request." I have no idea or memory what to do next or if I am even on the right track.

KMAIL + COMPACTING FOLDERS?
by Chris M 26 May '24

26 May '24

Hi Friends! I have a question: We might of talked about this before, under a different subject and I just can't find the email we talked about it in. That should teach me a lesson that if I have a different question, I should make it a WHOLE new email, that way I can refer back to it. But anyways: Why do we have to compact folders in KMAIL? I never had to do that in Evolution. Evolution doesn't even have an option for compacting folders. Doesn't KMAIL and EVO use the same kind of mail storage? ========================================================= Trying to understand KMAIL + Thanks ahead of time!

Continuing the Kaffeine jitters
by dep 25 May '24

It is amazing how on the great, vast internet the amount of material has grown while the amount of useful material has shrunk both as a percentage and as an absolute amount. This unhappy fact is exacerbated by rise of conversation bureaucrats, not just the usual web cops but an actual bureaucracy of petit tyrants who, by God, are going to rule with an iron fist. (I actually think one of the great selling points of TDE is this list, which is free of such things. Anyone who remembers the KDE forums way back when would probably still shudder.) This makes tasks like searching for answers all the worse because half the time the search results for your exact question end up being moderators and their rumpswabs angry that the question was asked, rather than just answering the damn thing. I discovered the first day with PiOS that Wayland ain't soup yet. It is theoretically more elegant. So is the ramjet, but if you stick 'em on airplanes now they's gwan to be a whole lot of crashes. I'm beginning to think the same thing is true of Pipewire. Many applications do not play nicely with it. The translation layer seems a little flaky. It has been years since work was done on Kaffeine, and there wasn't any Pipewire then. VLC seems to grumble about it. And unlike X11, which was easy to start instead of Wayland, getting rid of Pipewire is a real pain. But it is looking more and more like the culprit. I'm going in -- look after my family if I don't return. dep Pictures: http://www.ipernity.com/doc/depscribe/album Column: https://ofb.biz/author/dep/
